What can be built

The idea is that various cartesian CNC-controlled devices could be quickly assembled from the set, ranging from things like plotter, hot wire cutter and mini-router to experimental contraptions such as novel 3D printer, lab robot, assembly or manufacturing robot. Below are some of the actual working devices (contraptions) that have been built from the set.

A quick way to build something from the set without physically making it is with Sketchup and 3D model of the set. Existing contraptions can be downloaded from the source repository: http://contraptor.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/contraptor/trunk/contraptions/


XY Plotter
Simple contraption that can draw Gcode doodles


Mini-router
Uses Dremel to cut soft sheet materials


Perforaptor
Made to make perforated angle
